Fast instruction decoding is a challenge for the design of CISC microprocessors. A well-known solution to overcome this problem is using a trace cache. It stores and fetches alrea...
In this paper, we present a novel system modeling language which targets primarily the development of source-level multiprocessor memory aware optimizations. In contrast to previo...
